Billionaire, Let's Divorce! by BELLA

ANASTASIA

After my workout sessions today, I felt extremely rejuvenated. After a mild all-round cleanup of the house, I realized that the house was practically devoid of all these essentials. It was worse in the kitchen. Dennis has been the one doing most of the cooking so it was understandable when I saw the container where the grains were stored was empty. There was just about a spoon of oats left. The only things in that kitchen right now were the furniture, cheese, milk, water and coffee.

It was a good time to go grocery shopping. Besides, it's been a while since I went out to shop for anything.

So I got ready, hopped in a taxi and went straight to the grocery store.

As I looked through the ingredients on the cookies, I heard a sudden shriek come out of nowhere. I and the other customers turned around to see Nora, my ex colleague, gaping at me.

"Oh my worlds! Ana, is that you?" She yelled from across the room and obviously, the eyes of the other customers now settled on me.

I flashed an apologetic smile their way, then I dropped the box of cookies in my shopping cart and wheeled it as I walked to meet Nora halfway, a huge smile on both of our faces.

"Hey, girl," she drawled as soon as we met in the middle of the aisle and she pulled me in for a hug. "It's been such a long time. How're you?" She rushed out as she pulled away from the hug and took a step back. I shrugged, "I've been good. How're you?"

She waved one of her hands in the air, "forget about me, I'm great.' She took my wrists and took another step back, her gaze roaming my form. "Girl, you look good."

I briefly wondered if she noticed the slight bulge I still had after giving birth.

"Thank you," I smiled. "You look great."

She sighed. "Gosh. I miss you so much. How's life?"

"It's all great. What are y-"

"Nora?"

We both turned back to see about three of my other ex-colleagues.
